Title : URI Design and Ownership
Author : Mark Nottingham
Filename : draft-ietf-appsawg-uri-get-off-my-lawn-01.txt
Pages : 8
Date : 2014-01-29
Abstract:
Sometimes, it is attractive to add features to protocols or
applications by specifying a particular structure for URIs (or parts
thereof). However, publishing standards that mandate URI structure
is inappropriate because the structure of a URI needs to be firmly
under the control of its owner, and the IETF (as well as other
organisations) should not usurp this ownership.
This document is intended to prevent this practice (sometimes called
"URI Squatting") in standards, but updating RFC3986 to indicate where
it is acceptable.
